KATIE Price’s ex Lee Andrews has claimed that he was hacked after a memorial statement saying he had “passed away” was posted on his social media.
Earlier this week the conman, 43, hinted that he was out of Al-Awir jail in Dubai and
In the early hours of Thursday morning an Instagram story, which has now been deleted, was posted on his account which stated that Lee was no longer with us.
Alongside a black and white picture of Lee posing in a car, it said: “With a huge heart of sadness.
“And this heartfelt message, we say our final goodbyes to this beautiful soul, to our loving Lee who has tragically passed away.”
He later took to his account to share another post with a red cross over the original image.
Lee added: “Please don’t believe any of this I have been clearly targeted for the death hoax by sick individuals.
“I’m very much alive and well this is terrible as I have family that had to see it.
“My account is back with me.”
Lee’s ex Alana Percival, who he dated in 2025, took to her own Instagram to address the post and has accused him of faking his own death via the post.
She wrote on Instagram: “To everyone messaging me asking if Lee has passed away… I don’t know…
“Lee lies so so much and told me he has was dying once (which was a lie) so I don’t know what to believe seeing this!”
She added: “But answer is I don’t know.”
In the same post, she continued: “Says he’s been hacked.. more like wasn’t getting a lot of Instagram views so wanted some sort of attention and views, soon he’ll be showing you all his insights saying thank you for all the support.”
She added: “Hacked and back within an hour. Man thinks everyone is thick.
“Everyone sees through this, he has deep serious issues.
“I just received 100s messages with this and with in 10 minutes and me already saying it won’t be true after he uses this stunt when he isn’t getting enough attention like he did with me, if this didn’t show you how poorly this man really is then you got something wrong with you.”
When approached by The Sun about his ex’s allegations, Lee said: “No comment.”
He added: “Definitely not true I’m alive and kicking.”
Lee was quietly released from the prison earlier this week and has now opened up about his time inside.
Taking to , Lee did not address his marriage to Katie and focused on his “terrible ordeal”.
He said: “Right I haven’t made a public appearance yet, so here we are.
“They got me good, look (showing off buzz cut).
“I had to shave it cos obviously I’m freshly out of jail aka the most notorious jail in Dubai.”
“I’m out of jail now just got to get out the country.“
Going on to reference his time in prison, Lee appeared to make a bumbling statement about “whistleblowing” before quickly moving on to speak about his hair.
Lee continued: “I can’t whistleblow from here but I will be doing eventually.
“I need to say something about the terrible ordeal I was in and in order to get to the person I needed to get to to get out, I needed to shave my head to get past it, so there it is, sporting it again – it’ll grow back.
“No I don’t have a wig or a system, it’s just me. Not too bad, it’s alright, it’ll do for now.”
He previously shared a post to his social media story without context yesterday – signalling his release.
Former glamour model last month.
Katie and Lee tied the knot in January just weeks after dating.
